It will be primarily for still water fishing with my 2 kids, the wife might possibly join as well (doubt it) so looking for something big enough for 2 adults (sub 150lbs each) and 2 kids (4yr and 8yr). It will have a Minnkota for putting around the lake, tired of kicking around in the FishScout with the boy in tandem [emoji3]

I was wondering if any of you have any experiemce with the frameless models, particulary, Outlaw? Detonator? Or any others I suppose.
From what I have seen of their items via the shows, they appear amazingly well constructed, lifetime warranty, I believe. And tjese frameless ones are SUPER light!
My 10 y/o Outcast w/frame is SUPER heavy.

Curious who has used one, how they handle, oars in...

I have found a glue that works well to glue the seam with the help of Creek Company customer service. The instructions were to clamp the seam together for 24 hours possibly even using wood and clamps. The problem arrives in that the ends of the separation gets into the curved part of the seam.

I just purchased my first drift boat. It is a 16' Clackacraft Eddy. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with that stuff called Seadek? I am looking for something to use in the bow and stern where the anglers are to protect the boat from any cleats or studs. Whatever I use I would like to look professional. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thank you!

I tried the search function but didn't come up with anything. It's a Hyde, and has a lifetime warrany, however, he's the third owner, and imagines that a warranty repair would entail hauling it over to Idaho. He's definitely contemplating it, but...

So the painted plywood deck has a hole and has seen better days. Today I got the replacement birch and it has been waterproof treated on both sides and all four edges. Maybe tomorrow I'll remove the old deck and mount the new.

Once the cataraft is back on the deck, I think I'll measure out what size lockable oar/storage box I can fit between the tubes.]]>9Edge oarsFri, 28 Jul 2017 16:38:12 +0000http://www.washingtonflyfishing.com/forum/threads/edge-oars.129070/
